Producer Peter Safran on Peacemaker, Eagly, and How Shazam 2 Has Bigger Action

With writer-director James Gunn’s Peacemaker now streaming on HBO Max, I recently spoke with producer Peter Safran about making the fantastic series. During the interview, he talked about how Gunn wears his heart on his sleeve, the opening credits, why he loves the finale, Peacemaker’s relationship with Eagly, and more. In addition, he talked about how director David F. Sandberg’s Shazam! sequel (Shazam! Fury of the Gods) has bigger action, some great villains, and more humor, and his dream film project, which is about the first meeting of Winston Churchill and Joseph Stalin in 1942 in Moscow called Winston and Joe. As most of you know, Peacemaker picks up after the events of The Suicide Squad.

Gunn has written all eight episodes of the series and directs five of the show’s episodes. Also direct
